Olivier Leflaive Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2022

Olivier Leflaive Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is an iconic Grand Cru Chardonnay displaying profound aromas of ripe pear, white peach, lemon curd, citrus blossom, hazelnut, brioche, toasted almond, flint, and fine oak. Exceptionally rich yet perfectly balanced, it delivers remarkable minerality, vibrant acidity, extraordinary depth, and an immensely long, complex finish.

Food Pairing: Pair with lobster, butter-poached shellfish, foie gras, turbot, roasted chicken, truffle risotto, aged Comté, or creamy mushroom dishes.

96 Points - James Suckling

One of Olivier Leflaive's top wines, harvested from vines owned by the firm. It has all the great concentration that Bâtard promises, balanced by lively, citrus acidity for a memorable and appetizing expression. So pure and focused on the palate and long in the finish. Medium- to full-bodied. Will age well for decades. Best after 2028.
